Jag hittade ett intressant avsnitt i en artikel om bonsaiträd. Om ni som jag är trädgårdsintresserade kan det kanske vara av intresse.

Pots:

• Pots should be clean and undamaged.
• The colour of the pot should not clash with the dominant colour of the tree whether that be the colour of the leaves, flowers or fruit.
• Glazed pots are generally considered better for deciduous species whilst unglazed pots are generally used for coniferous trees.
• Antique pots should be used for old trees, new pots should be used for younger trees.
• The pot should not distract attention from the tree, it should compliment and enhance it.
• Ornate pots are more suitable for flowering and fruiting trees or mame bonsai.
• The tree should not be planted centrally in the pot except when a round or square pot is used.
• The dominant mass of the tree should be above the centre of the pot. A tree leaning to the right should be planted left of centre so its centre of gravity is above the middle of the pot.
• The tree should be planted slightly toward the back of the pot.
• The tree should only be overpotted for horticultural reasons; visually, underpotted trees look as though they have thicker trunks than overpotted trees.
